Spanish is the most widely-spoken of the Romance languages. It has many beautiful words. Here is my list of ten beautiful Spanish words:
azul (blue)
corona (crown)
flor (flower)
luna (moon)
luz (sun)
mar (sea)
mariposa (butterfly)
montaƱa (mountain)
sol (sun)
vida (life)
Five of the words end with the vowel [a], a low central vowel. Four end with liquids and one with a fricative. Four of the words are monosyllabic. The longest word, mariposa, has four syllables.
